What the club says: The course measures a relatively modest 5542 yards. But don’t be fooled by its length. Although it has a par of 66, the SSS is 68 and the course boasts some of the trickiest Par 3s and demanding Par 4s in the country. In recent years, the club has completed an ambitious greens-refurbishment programme, bringing them up to USGA standard.

Most Helpful Review

Good course, good condition, highly recommended. No par 5s, but some long par 4s and the par 3s are tricky

Golf Course Reviews for Balmore Golf Club

Course was in great condition and was excellent value for money. If I hadn't got a deal though, I doubt if I would have paid the full green fees. Preferred the front 9, the two back-to-back par 3s at 15 and 16 crossing over each other didn't do it for me, but 18 is a lovely hole. Course looked lovely in the autumn colours.

Fantastic. Played on a sunny day in late August and it was a joy. Short course with quite a few par 3s but they are really lovely looking holes. Course is still a bit tricky in places, but I didn't think it was an overly difficult one. Greens are immaculate and the course in general looked great. Lovely surroundings.

Had lunch in the clubhouse after which was nice. Received a good welcome all round. Would definitely play again and recommend without hesitation.
